Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods of sensitizing a human tumor cell with adenovirus E1A. The methods involve treating a human tumor cell by, first, introducing into the tumor cell nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide having adenovirus E1A activity, expressing the E1A active polypeptide in the cell, and then either contacting the E1A expressing tumor cell with a chemotherapeutic agent or irradiating the E1A-expressing tumor cell. The invention also provides methods of enhancing a subject's response to chemotherapy or irradiation by introducing into a subject's tumor cells nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide having adenovirus E1A activity, expressing the E1A active polypeptide in the cells and finally, administering either a chemotherapeutic agent or irradiation. The invention also provides a method of treating cancer.

Abstract: An enclosure or chassis for a high-performance personal computer which is portable, provides easy access to its internal components for servicing, and provides mechanisms which allow peripheral devices such as hard disks, floppy disks and CD-ROM drives to be quickly and easily installed and removed. The chassis provides an efficient cooling mechanism so that a heat sink required for a high-performance processor can be smaller than would be the case without such efficient cooling mechanism. The chassis opens up into a top portion and a bottom portion. The top portion houses the peripheral devices, and the bottom portion houses the motherboard, power supply and cooling fans. A tamper switch is provided which monitors the state of the chassis (open or closed) and reports over a network whenever the chassis is opened. However, the computer can still be operated when the chassis is opened for inspection, service and repair. A mechanism which enables quick and easy removal of the peripheral devices utilizes a spring clip which provides solid grounding contact to the chassis is also provided.

Abstract: Connection-oriented services for packet switched data communications networks are provided, including distributed MAC and protocol alias addresses discovery. Link state topology exchanges provide each switch with network topology graphs to determine paths from source to destination end systems. Broadcast frames are resolved to unicast frames to reduce broadcast traffic. Policy restrictions may be applied prior to connection setup. Connection management includes source-routed mapping of connections on the desired path. Distributed call rerouting is provided so switches receive topology change notifications and unmap failed link connections. Broadcast/unknown services provide non-resolvable packet restricted flooding. Connection-oriented switching is provided based on source and destination MAC addresses. Resolution of networks outside the switch domain is enabled by listening for network and server route advertisements and maintaining best routes to the networks and servers. Route and path metrics may be combined to determine paths from access switches to egress switches connected to the external network.

Abstract: The system for coating a liquid resin onto a moving belt (B) comprises a pourer (2') formed by the bottom of a liquid resin gravity supply tank (13'). The bottom slopes close to the belt. A support wall (6') acts as a rough calibrator and spreader of a thick resin layer on the belt. The wall supports an inclined section (15) on its upper edge (14) which extends across the belt width. The upper edge (17) under the inclined section follows the belt and precisely calibrates the thick resin layer to a predetermined thickness and recover the excess resin. The recovered resin flows freely along the inclined wall to reach its lower edge (16) and enter the tank. The recovered resin causes turbulence in the tank and homogenises the liquid contained in it.

Granted: 2008-03-05
Abstract: La présente invention concerne une production améliorée de protéines bactériennes dans un champignon filamenteux, par exemple le Trichoderma et l'Aspergillus. L'amélioration s'obtient  grâce à la construction de vecteurs d'expression qui comprennent la protéine bactérienne codant des séquences d'ADN fusionnées en cadre avec une séquence d'ADN codant une protéine qui peut être sécrétée par un champignon filamenteux ou bien un ou plusieurs domaines fonctionnels de cette protéine. Des hôtes de champignons filamenteux transformés avec de tels vecteurs d'expression sécrètent les protéines ou enzymes désirées, en particulier des xylanases ou des cellulases provenant de bactéries ou, de préférence, d'actinomycètes, les faisant apparaître dans le milieu de culture de l'hôte. Les protéines ou enzymes désirées peuvent être utilisées directement, à partir du milieu de culture, après séparation de cellules hôtes, ou récupérées et traitées en utilisant des processus en aval qui conviennent pour l'application considérée. Les xylanases ou cellulases d'actinomycètes produites en utilisant les vecteurs d'expression ci-dessus conviennent parfaitement pour traiter des matières d'origine végétale, par exemple dans les industries de la pâte à papier et du papier.

Abstract: A method for the catalytic manufacture of MIBK and DIBK from DMK and/or IPA (optionally in the presence of water) while obtaining improved control over the ratio of DIBK to MIBK in the product stream, comprising reacting, in the presence of an aldol condensation catalyst, a reactant mixture comprising DMK and/or IPA and an effective amount of an additional reactant selected from the group consisting of mesityl oxide (MSO) and methyl isobutyl carbinol (MIBC) and mixtures thereof. Reaction temperature may also be changed to affect the product ratio obtained. The preferred catalyst is copper-based. An overall excess of hydrogen is desired, and this may be achieved by introducing or recycling hydrogen, and/or by balancing exothermic and endothermic reactions. By this invention, the product ratio of DIBK to MIBK is altered such that, as DMK and/or IPA conversion is increased, a lesser amount of DIBK than normal is produced, resulting in improved ability to control the product ratio of these materials.

Abstract: Eine Auslassvorrichtung zum dosierbaren Auslassen von Schüttgut aus einem Aufnahmebereich, umfasst einen Gehäuseteil (2), durch den das Schüttgut bei geöffnetem Verschliessorgan durchströmt, und eine am Gehäuseteil (2) gelagerte Betätigungsvorrichtung zum Heben und Senken des Verschliessorganes. Die Betätigungsvorrichtung umfasst eine Kolben-Zylinder-Anordnung (5) mit einer Rollmembrane (9) und eine Linearführungseinheit (16), die eine exakte Führung gewährleistet. Die Rollmembrane (9) kann so dünn und beweglich ausgebildet werden, dass der innere Widerstand gegen die bei der Kolbenbewegung nötige Verformung sehr klein ist. Entsprechend kann mit einer Kolben-Zylinder-Anordnung, bei der der Kolben (10) über eine Rollmembrane (9) mit dem Zylinder (6,7) verbunden ist, eine äusserst kurze Verschliesszeit gewährleistet werden. Das hiesst, dass nach der Beendigung der Druckbeaufschlagung des von der Rollmembrane (9) abgeschlossenen Raumes zwischen dem Zylinder (6,7) und dem Kolben (10), der Kolben (10) im wesentlichen ungehindert nach unten rutscht. Beim Einsatz einer Rollmembrane (9) übernimmt die Rollmembrane (9) nur die Dichtungsfunktion zwischen Zylinder (6,7) und Kolben (10). Die Führung erfolgt getrennt vom Bereich mit der Rollmembrane (9) durch eine Linearführungseinheit (16) mit konstanter, von der Kolbenposition unabhängiger Führungseigenschaft. Ein Verklemmen wird dadurch verhindert. Die Linearführungseinheit (16) kann vorteilhaft mit einer automatischen Hubhöhen-Verstellvorrichtung ergänzt werden, so dass die Dosiereigenschaft noch weiter verbessert wird. <IMAGE>
